Assalmu alaikum,
Wow I am very impressed. I have been waiting some time for a website such as this, showing pictures of everyday life and places in Dhaka where we never really get to see here in UK.

Its been nearly 15 years since I last went to B'desh. I am very encouraged by the development of exquisite buildings in places like Dhaka. I hope this can be extended to the lesser developed areas of the city & country, like Sylhet.

Thank you so much for your comment. The blog mainly focus 'Dhaka City'. I belive there are some sites on Moulvibazar and may be sylhet.
